I've got 19" 50th anniversary turbo rims that I love so much that I've bought a second set. (matching trailer) However my issue has been load rated tyres. In the factory 245/35/19 I can only get a 93rating (650kg). Local Bob Jane guy said they upped the Aspect ratio and fitted 245/40/19, 98(750) to a GS ute a while ago and haven't had any clearance issues so far. Speedo is 3.8% off. Also thinking possibly 255/40/19, 100(800kg), 5% off. Specifications for the One Tonner say max rear axle load is 1700kg so if I got to 1600kg worth of tyre rating that's enough for me. I also what the bigger numbers so I can register my trailer with a higher Load capacity. So whos done this before and had experience? How does upsizing affect acceleration, drag times, launching, handeling, cruising revs etc? Considering the same brand/pattern tyres. Also how would I find out the weight rating of the rim itself? The local parts department potatoes aren't that helpful, they couldn't even find my wheels on their system & said they must be an aftermarket option. http://www.tyresizecalculator.com/tyre-wheel-calculators/tire-size-calculator-tire-dimensions http://www.bobjane.com.au/info/load-index-speed-symbol/

Hey guys finally saved up enough money to buy myself some rims for my car (2011 white fg xr6) but still unsure of what to get. I've narrowed it down to these two styles/brand of wheels in 19" Quoted at: $1460 including tires and installation http://iconwheels.com.au/wheels/icon-zest/ Not sure of the price but looking online $2000+ http://www.ozzytyres.com.au/store/wheel-tyre-packages/vertini-magic-19x8-5-5x114-3-matt-black-wheel-tyre-package-1.html#!prettyPhoto The vertini's are more expensive but I'm a fan of the concave style and how it looks on the car but I also love the icon's because they look great and are more affordable price, but still not quite sure Sorry for the long post but Any advice would be appreciated as well as pictures if anyone has them
